When Not To Listen..

Much has been written about the differences between men and women and almost everything "said" has left each side more in the dark than before all this "saying" came to public attention. It has recently become clear that the only way for these two to ever develop any real sense of understanding and insight into the inner workings of each other, is through espionage. Espionage has sadly received too many bum raps when in actuality, it is the only thing that can and will work. Consider the obvious connundrum of a man who is constantly penalized for doing the "wrong" thing despite total adherence to the wishes expressed by his female counterpart. To help him make sense of this increasingly frustrating situation, enter the SPY, a good friend (without benefits of course) who is female. While her official title is Spy, she has been known to occasionally use the alias, Interpreter! She will listen attentively to a recounted conversation and will proceed to decode it using only basic uncomplicated language which goes a long way towards helping the male achieve clarification, as she confirms what he has only just begun to suspect; his gut feeling, male "reading" and ultimate response, was not even close to being what his lady was looking for and what's worse, way too far removed from her intended meaning. This new vein of espionage has thus far been enjoying great success and is growing rapidly in popularity which has begun to worry some self-help gurus and erstwhile authors who are scrambling to oust this new upstart from what until now has been their exclusive domain. Team Espionage has entitled their first book Never Do What They Tell you to Do, Do Only What I Tell You To Do!
